2023 Mercedes-Benz Eqs 450 4matic Recalls & Complaints

The 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQS 450 4MATIC has 3 recalls, the most serious being two separate issues that can cause a sudden loss of drive power while the vehicle is moving, raising the risk of a crash.

The first involves battery management software that can cut drive power unexpectedly. The second affects vehicles that received a prior repair: if an incorrect fuse box was installed during that earlier service visit, it can cause the same sudden power loss and may also disable critical systems like the airbags or instrument cluster. There is also a lower-severity concern with the pedestrian alert system: a software issue can cause the vehicle to emit the wrong sound when reversing, which may not effectively warn pedestrians that the car is moving toward them.
